Arnold Schwarzenegger has hit back at a gas company after it left a service trench incomplete on a Californian road.filling what he thought was a"giant pothole" which he said had been"screwing up cars and bicycles for weeks" in the Brentwood neighbourhood in Los Angeles.
It was actually a"service trench" being used for"permitted work" by a gas company, SoCalGas, authorities in Los Angeles have said. Responding to the authorities, Daniel Ketchell, a spokesperson for Schwarzenegger said:"If the gas company thinks finishing their work and leaving a trench in one lane of a two-lane road for six months that requires cars and bicyclists to drive in wrong way traffic - again, for six months - they should go back to school."
He explained that the former governor of California understood the current LA Mayor, Karen Bass, is only a"few months on the job and trying to hire more road workers and doesn't blame her". Mr Ketchell added that Schwarzenegger"just wanted to send a message to everyone that these jobs can be done quickly".According to the Los Angeles Times, SoCalGas crews completed an upgrade on a pipeline at the end of January and"applied temporary paving over the excavation," quoting the utility company's statement.
